Does this remote work in the Media Player App and/or the official Plex app? I understand it works with Netflix and other similar apps already.

I don't know. I hate this product. The remote must be 2 inches away to work. I have it in a junk box and never use it. I bought and use the Micca Speck 1080p Full-HD Ultra Portable Digital Media Player.

Depends on how you'd define "work" in regards to Netflix. If you're willing to walk to the Xbox and do a hard reset every single time you want to watch Netfllix and use the remote, then yes. If you're like my household you'll probably find that having to do that every single time as defeating the convenience of using the remote vs using the default game controller. W/o doing the reset all that you can do w/ the remote is open the Netflix app. Once inside the app the remote doesn't work w/o the hard reset.

I can't answer specifically for this player, but we had purchased a Vizio 3D Bluray player to go with our Vizio 3D TV. We assumed it would be a perfect combination, but we found that we needed both remotes and they conflicted. Pressing buttons on the TV remote would activate the player, which would then take control of the TV via HDMI, which would exit us out of Netflix or whatever we were watching. Ultimately we returned the Vizio player in favor of a different brand to avoid remote control conflicts.

Hello !! Yes!! This Sony Google TV media player comes with the ability to download the PLEX client software and I gotta tell ya, it blows away the roku and any other PLEX client for your TV!! The remote control for the Sony unit is fantastick as well!! Go for the Sony Google TV box and you won't be disappointed!....because it has a beautiful, feature rich and spectacular set of metadata that it automatically pulls together for your movie / TV episodes!! By default, It's set to automagically create the most beautiful and metadata rich eye-candy, complete with movie and TV poster pictures along with comprehensive descriptions and easy to use and understand pages for finding exactly what you want to watch very quickly! I have tried a ton of different clients for PLEX and I gotta tell ya, this Sony Google TV player with its ability to not only run PLEX client, but many other droid apps as well, is what I always recommend for my clients when I'm installing entertainment centers or systems! I highly suggest you grab one of these Sony Google TV players and see for yourself how beautiful the PLEX interface is as well as how awesome the included, backlit remote that has full qwerty keyboard and touchpad is! Enjoy and please feel free to ask more questions if you need help!! Sincerely, Chris

Mine works great for Netflix, don't use it for much anything else unless I'm bored or curious to see what else is online to watch. For an older unit it still hangs in there with some newer models and plays just about anything, I use the PS3 media server to stream movies that wouldn't otherwise play thru smart media or usb. I haven't seen any updates for the firmware since I got mine, but that may not be unusual since I haven't seen any problems other than some codecs that don't play unless streaming them from a PC.

It works with the Roku. If you look at the buttons near the bottom of the remote you will see a menu button which works the roku. It is not labeled well but it does work with the Roku.

If you're referring to the problem where the Netflix button on the remote doesn't work, go to Netflix via the Smart Hub. It always works that way for me. If that's not the problem to which you're referring, then I don't know.

I have not used remote up to now, I am not sure if that worked, as it is the player does not open folders. It would be wonderful if it could open the folders.

On the remote there is a "format" button which works when watching dvd etc.,when watching netflix you have to quit netflix and open netflix again-netflix causes format change when switching from some tv shows to fullscreen movies.

I do not believe it does but I have never tried. I assumed that one could only the Roku remote for NetFlix.

you can control Windows system volume but the play, fast forward, rewind,etc buttons won't work. but the remote had a mouse so you can move the cursor. I've found a wireless keyboard with a track pad to be more useful for Netflix and Hulu - Logitech k400r. this remote is best used in Windows media center
